9 Interior Panels Dashboard problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2020

I bought my car in October 2009. I did not discover until years later that the pistons for the 2009 Toyota Camry le did not fit correctly. This caused oil consumption problems, but it did not start happening until a 3-year warranty and at about 60-70 thousand miles. I did not get a notice of recall notice of Toyota's resolution to the problem, because they had the wrong apartment number and email address which I was told by rep. Sherry and rose at Toyota corporation. Rep. Said she was sending information to higher up at the corporation instead she sending it to the dealership. I did not get notice of a class action suit/resolution, trotter body, or melting dashboard. I have paid at least $6-7 thousand to dealerships workmanship is bad. I need help!! because I did not get notices Toyota should fix and compensate me for repairs. Also, they replaced my hold break system because they assumed the shrieking noise was the break. This was done without my permission. I had to replace the axle they replaced less than a year ago. I am frustrated. I can not pay out any more money. My car stopped working on i95 I had to have it told to the dealership in mamaroneck. Rep sherry told me the trotter body is on recall until 2026, dealership is saying no. I can be reached at 914 843 6222.
